So I was able to install everything correctly, but I don’t know what I’m supposed to do in order for people that don’t have my same IP to see my files. I’d like to share my Jellyfin server with some friends so they can see movies there. I’ve already open the ports, but they can’t still access them, I’m using elementaryOS Hera which is built on Ubuntu 18.04.4 LTS.

    Hmmm on your router you may need to add another rule for port 80. Do exactly what you did before for port 443. Add a rule for the IP your jellyfin server is running on, then enter port 80 in both of the port fields.

      I didn’t create any type of .json file or something like that for Caddy like that forum post or the documentation says, could that be doing something? Also I realized I didn’t save the router config for port 443, I just saved it and ran it but it still gives me the same error, maybe it takes a bit to update.

      I’m going to do that now, though.

      Edit: Just opened port 80, still the same error. U_U

      Edit 2: Thanks for being so patient and helping me.

        I’m not sure…

        Actually when you run the caddy command remove the https:// at the start. Just input example.duckdns.org (but with your actual url).

        I struggled a bit with my setup too. I think I ended up manually editing the Caddy config file at some point.

        Edit: No worries. Hopefully someone more knowledgable than me will chime in to help us! :-)

          Oh, I think the message is different now:

          Edit: I removed the http/s and it’s still this new message.

            Do you have the nginx server running? Can you stop and disable it?

                I would but I’m heading out soon (and also getting to the end of my knowledge). So might need to see if someone else can help, sorry.

                    You can remove that code from your post because it’s showing your real URL

                    On your jellyfin server (access it locally) you can create accounts. I think you should have an admin username and password already as part of the set up. Make sure you use a strong password.

                    You can make additional accounts for other users you want to give access to.
